Abstract
Corrosion is an industrially and economically challenging environmental material degradation process that has a profound impact on human lives, with a staggering annual global cost of about 2.5 trillion dollars. Corrosion monitoring is a management practice of strategically averting corrosion harm to safeguard tangible assets.This chapter presents a review report on the general advantages of corrosion monitoring as well as the principles, advantages, and disadvantages of the various up- to-date monitoring techniques and kinds of facilities that are used for monitoring, providing insights into the advanced and emerging monitoring technologies. The report shows that, presently, there are several different corrosion monitoring techniques and more in emergence that may not be equally beneficial for every application, so it is essential to carefully evaluate, select, and implement them to effectively track the corrosion processes of assets across different environmental conditions. It is crucial for all structural assets, especially those with various corrosion rates at different surface locations and that are made of metallic and/or non-metallic components such as steel, aluminum, concrete, ceramics, and glass in corrosive settings. Corrosion monitoring is essential for assets that require total removal, repair, or replacement. Corrosion monitoring is purposed to proactively identify potential corrosion risks and take necessary measures to ensure the integrity of our assets and safe working environments. Artificial intelligence, with machine learning capabilities, stands out as an emerging technology with the potential to transform corrosion monitoring and control to previously unachievable levels with traditional monitor- ing techniques.
